Summary
Jonny's back after a trip to the world's longest pier and Richard knows a man who once had a terrible accident with a holiday scooter of doom.
Also in this episode, Gregg Wallace shouting at people in factories, unfortunate bottoming out stories in other people's cars, smashing up a load of Corsas in the name of airbag testing, and why elks are idiots.
Plus, the strange quirks of the Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglio, a very nice Lexus green, trying to persuade someone to buy a GS F, and actual police people have written in with the inside scoop on those mysterious BMW engine problems.
Finally, Jonny and Richard have an important message for all men.

| 0:00.0 | I'm Richard Porter. I'm Johnny Smith. And this is Smith and Sniff, a podcast in which two |
| 0:06.1 | friends talk about cars and many other things. |
| 0:09.8 | There should definitely be a name of a storm that's just called Storm. Don't drive a Suzuki |
| 0:18.7 | Jimny because Suzuki Jimny's name must be horrific in a storm. Yeah, I've driven it |
| 0:25.8 | in two storms, which is too too many. And also, the other thing is you realise that it's |
| 0:33.1 | like watching a very slow boat on a stormy day by the sea, going against the current. |
| 0:40.2 | You realise it's got everything wide open, full throttle and it's just not proceeding. |
| 0:45.6 | Well, I like James May's shit dinghy. Yes, it's like James May's shit. It's exactly |
| 0:51.2 | like that. And I, I felt like that. And I was actually at the coast this morning. I woke |
| 0:56.0 | up off of the coast. And, you're always at off of the coast. Were you drifting |
| 1:02.0 | listening to your seat? Actually, to be specific, I was just off of the |
| 1:06.5 | coast because I was at South End on the sea. And I took, I thought it's extremely stormy |
| 1:12.4 | rather dangerous. So I went, I went on the pier, which is the world's longest pier. Yeah. |
| 1:17.9 | And I'd never done it before. And I took my sun and we went on a very rickety train, |
| 1:22.1 | which genuinely felt like it was going to fall into the ocean. And I was, I had a coffee |
| 1:27.0 | this morning, 1.3 miles into the ocean. Is it 1.3 miles? It's 1.3 miles. It's 1880, 1.889 |
| 1:37.6 | kilometres, 1.3 miles. I mean, it's just, I had no idea. It's man-made. It's man-made |
| 1:44.4 | madness. Man-made madness. You should be pitching that to discovery or someone. Johnny |
| 1:50.6 | Smith's man-made madness. No. Sugs would get the look at these pricks. I wouldn't, I wouldn't |
| 1:56.1 | get that job. In fact, it's one of those ones of, it's the documentaries about how things |
| 2:02.2 | are made in factories with Greg Waller. He runs around like a hyperactive egg shouting |
| 2:09.3 | at people. How's this working in? All right. And the bloke's like, the bloke's like, |
